Students and graduates dedicated to sustainability principles are already playing a pivotal role in driving forward the ethical fashion movement. In order to facilitate access by students to the SOURCE platform and inspire and motivate increased engagement with sustainability, the Ethical Fashion Forum has extended Fellowship to Colleges, in order to offer low cost access to SOURCE Intelligence and Database to students.

College Fellows subscribe to the SOURCE on behalf of students at a fraction of the cost of individual subscription.
